"Believing Christians should look upon themselves as such a creative minority and ... espouse once again the best of its heritage, thereby being at the service of humankind at large." --Joseph Ratzinger

Speaking of politicians and dogs, that name is already taken... by the dog that former Ill. Gov. Rod Blagojevich got his daughters for Christmas after his arrest on corruption charges in 2008, to take their mind off the situation. I believe he got them a second dog before he went off to federal prison for 14 years.

He was a child in a country where people eat dog. People eat dogs in many countries -- China, Vietnam, even Switzerland -- and he was a KID. Romney was an ADULT torturing a dog in a country where normal folks don't torture dogs. FYI -- your ignorance is showing. That's never funny. Just makes you look kind of dumb. And not so "creative."

He didn't torture a dog....give me a break. Do you even own a dog? If you did, you'd know that dogs LOVE riding in vehicles, sticking their heads out the window, etc. Hunting dogs ride in little cages in the back of trucks...torture?? Nope!

And...if it was a kid thing, why did he (or Bill Ayers) make it important by mentioning it in his book?

"Try Again. CMR is exploiting the president's exploitation of Martin."

Of course, CMR is exploiting the president's exploitation of Martin. But, the dog in the hoodie is an obvious parody of the pictures of Martin in a hoodie. So, yes, that's exploiting Martin and his tragic killing.

You're the one exploiting Martin - using his death as a political prop to silence speech you don't like.

"Martin and his tragic killing"

Martin's tragic killing? Who did Martin kill? You meant tragic *death*. You wouldn't have made that mistake if you actually cared about his death. Instead of lacing your narrative with hyperbole to make it more than it is.

Thousands of blacks murdered by their own each year yet noone knows their names. Does it really take a person of a different race to kill one to give them validity of existence and a name? To me that seems to be the real crime.If Zimmerman is guilty of murder fry him. If Zimmerman is innocent of murder due to defending his life, set him free. Let the facts speak there not the innuendo of racist crowds on both sides.

Man, you can really tell when Lefties are in a panic over their messiah. All of a sudden it's "hey show some respect" and "I thought you were funny before, but this is over the line". Of course it's funny, but Leftists have absolutely no sense of humor. Whether it's pouring hatred on some conservative, or falling on their sword for Obama, there's no humor allowed.

I love dogs, have a wonderful, smart Sheltie I would never strap to the top of the car or even consider eating if starving. I do not condone what Romney did, at the very least the windchill had to be really bad for the poor dog... and I don't condone eating dog meat no matter where it's served... but this really cracked me up. Best belly laugh I've had since the photoshop I saw yesterday of POTUS chasing Bo with knife and fork in hands.

"I do not condone what Romney did, at the very least the windchill had to be really bad for the poor dog"

As I understand it, Romney put up a windshield in front of the cage on top of the car to keep the wind from blowing too hard on Seamus and it also probably helped with gas mileage from decreased wind resistance.

He was a child in a country where people eat dog. People eat dogs in many countries -- China, Vietnam, even Switzerland -- and he was a KID. Romney was an ADULT torturing a dog in a country where normal folks don't torture dogs. FYI -- your ignorance is showing. That's never funny. Just makes you look kind of dumb. And not so "creative."

ahahahahah Swiss eat dogs. I've heard it all now.

Have you ever been more than 5 miles from your trailer, slope-brow? All of your knowledge is from wikipedia and it shows.

First, to the Anonymous out there who doesn't know English: "killing" is also a noun, as in "the act of causing death; slaying." So, the phrase, "Martin's tragic killing" is perfectly correct English.

Second, to the Anonymous out there who assumes that finding this post in poor taste and exploitative of Martin's death means I only care about Martin's death because he was killed by someone who wasn't black, I remind you that the post was a parody of Obama's statement and Martin's death, which is why the comment was about Martin.

If you guys or girls aren't going to bother with serious arguments, but instead rely on insult and ad hominems, there's no point in going on. I'll move on and you can pat yourselves on the back for (once again, no doubt) ridding a conversation of those interested in the intelligent exchange of ideas.

I would respectfullyt encourage the Archbald's, however, to consider the kind of responses they've received to this post and ask if the racism, cursing and insults is what faithful Catholics ought to expect from a blog that claims its inspiration from the Holy Father's exhortation to challenge the culture with the gospel of Christ. You're the ones ultimately responsible for the Catholic demeanor of your blog. Think about it.

SPImmortal,I think most conservatives would agree that civilized discourse is the preferred method. It's difficult, though, when we are then we are reviled with foul language and accusations of racism, told to f-off, called fruit cakes(and that's putting it nicely) and generally being maligned when drying to present our cases in kind of cogent manner. I'm coming off of 40+ years of being a liberal and just recently joined the conservative movement because of this president's policies. Even as a young "hippie chick", I knew that it was the constitution that gave me the right to speak my peace - it is disturbing to me that a party I once respected has turned into a party I no longer recognize. The intolerance of today's liberals has nothing to do with my beliefs. This president has nothing to offer me or my daughter other than a diminished lifestyle and more government control over my life. I cannot tolerate it and I will not tolerate it.

I've never seen as many Morons as all the Right-Wing Idiots posting their Inane comments on this Dumb Blog. It's like eavesdropping on private conversations in an insane asylum. I knew that Conservatives were Imbeciles. But I've rarely seen that fact demonstrated so overwhelmingly as reading all the Brain-Dead, Medieval comments on this Blog.

The erudite Mr. CJP evidently runs a blog called "Conservatives are America's Real Terrorists." If only there were more people with CJP's obviously masterful grasp of politics and class to teach more of us morons a lesson. He would, I'm sure, but the drivers at the window are getting antsy. Those burgers aren't gonna serve themselves,

Well Mr. Anonymous did you say the same thing about respecting President Bush even though you didn't respect his policies. I suspect not. And as for Romney knowingly torturing his dog 30 years ago, I sincerely doubt the dog was harmed.At least he wasn't waterboarded. Just think how terrible it would have been if he had gotten some water up his nose.

"First, to the Anonymous out there who doesn't know English: "killing" is also a noun, as in "the act of causing death; slaying." So, the phrase, "Martin's tragic killing" is perfectly correct English."

No. "Death" has a neutral connotation. "Killing" does not. And I never said it wasn't correct English, I said you were lacing your English with hyperbole to make it more dramatic.

"If you guys or girls aren't going to bother with serious arguments, but instead rely on insult and ad hominems, there's no point in going on"

Hysterical. The ONLY reason this ad hom is in play is to counter the ad hom Team Obama launched against Romney to distract from Obama's poor handling of the economy. You wanted to talk about dogs, so we're talking about dogs.

You're like the school yard bully that runs to teacher because someone finally punched back.

But don't fret. We'll be having serious discussions about the economy all summer.

"Second, to the Anonymous out there who assumes that finding this post in poor taste and exploitative of Martin's death means I only care about Martin's death because he was killed by someone who wasn't black"

You've been using Martin's corpse as a political prop. Now you want to lecture us that its in "poor taste"... 9,000 black youths killed every year but its Martin that has your attention? Ask yourself why.

I put it on my FB page and a firestorm ensued! It was a JOKE for crying out loud and one of my lefty friends was ranting about Bush (both), Cheaney, Palin and (going back 30 years or so) Reagan! 24 hours later and the argument is still ongoing, but I've bowed out. It was a joke. And a dang funny one at that.
